Lyrics

Drownin' in Words
Lyrics by Laurie Williams A,Ac 2008

V 1
I was thinkin' bout the crazy stuff while lyin' in my bed
It must have been the lunatic that lives inside my head
One minute I was laughin' till the tears were pouring down
And then they turned to sorrow and they made an awful sound

chorus

Always drownin' in my words
And no matter what ya heard
The truth ain't always pretty
When happy turns to pity
Always drownin' in my words

V 2
One minute it's a happy song I'm hearin in my head
And then it turns to requiems
I'm singin for the dead
my angels play their harps so sweet
And then the devil changes beat
It seems that they never meet
in harmony instead


Chorus repeat

V3
Sometimes I want to shoot myself to make the music stop
Tell everyone I've lost my muse and take a different job
Mama said I have a gift
but Mama didn't have to lift
all the burdens that always drift
in other people's head

Instrumental and chorus (?)
